Here, Prager has every chance to give anyone he wants a chance to pose a counter argument against repealing "dont ask don't tell". He himself could offer one, but he seems more concerned with how he might be characterized by another know-nothing pundit. that's what FPM does every day.

Which will be the more aggrieved victim group of the New Armed Forces? Captain Mohammad, for having his religious sensibilities offended, or Corporal Bruce, for encountering an anti-gay bigot? Oh, the mind REELS with the comedic possibilities. This is the sort of crap you get when the extreme radical left get its claws on the warrior class: They turn it into just another federal bureaucracy, complete with every idiotic work-place health, safety and lifestyle rule.

They are "in your face" with their demands. The DADT policy represents a compromise. Compromises are never perfect, but civilized people accept them when two sides are far apart in their beliefs and no one side can dominate. Liberals need to stop belly-aching and move on to other issues. The other problem with liberals is they don't believe in compromise. They are "in your face" with their demands.

Also, we should be allowed to recruit our chickenbait from the 17 and 18 years olds and freely and openly be actively homosexual without disciplinary action."

It is not. For someone to be black, white, Asian, or Polynesian is not bad in any sense whatsoever, and one cannot choose to stop being any of those ethnicities. Homosexuality is, however, considered to be wrong by several major religious writings, and one can stop its practice, even if he cannot stop the desire. He can refuse to act upon the desire. In addition to religious writings, there are abundant sociological reasons to claim homosexuality is unhealthy. I do not advocate the mistreatment of anyone who has these desires; indeed, compassion is the best approach to anyone who is not being deliberately offensive. To those who struggle with such desires, I hope blessings and peace. To those who would compel the human race to hold such desires in honor, I hope they fail in their efforts, for they are not seeking understanding, equality or kindness, but compulsion.

Our country is precisely in the same position as the Roman Empire was when it failed and collapsed. Just perhaps the elimination of the DADT within the military ranks will serve to destroy the military from within, something every good Progressive secretly prays for.

Final thought: the whole gay experiment thing worked out so badly for the Roman Empire that they, ah, ceased to exist forever. Understandably, no government or military has tried it since.
